Moses told the people, Fear not; stand still (firm,
confident, undismayed) and see the salvation of the Lord which He will work for
you today… The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace and
remain at rest.
Exodus 14:13-14
We have free access to God. We can go before Him anytime we
want to. We don’t need a special invitation. The throne room is always open,
God is always home, He is never napping or on the phone. We can go boldly,
expecting Him to meet our need and do it willingly and joyfully.
No doubt millions of people pray, but the question we want answered is, how do
they pray? Do they pray expectantly, boldly, fearlessly, confidently,
aggressively, or ashamed, condemned, asking for barely enough to get by on and
seriously doubting if they will even get that?
You go, girl! Start praying like you have never prayed before. Believe that God wants to meet your needs because He is good, not necessarily because you are good. None of us living in a fleshly body has a perfect record. We all make mistakes, and yours probably are no worse than anyone else’s. So stop beating up on yourself and start expecting God to be God in your life. BE confident even when you don’t FEEL confident and watch God work!

Personally I've seen God great things for me when I'm walking with Him, spending time in prayer, reading His word and by the Holy Spirit obeying to the best of the grace given to me. Prayer can't be answered in rebellion and we must learn to be patient for God. "Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength..."
